Have you met Dolly?
Dolly Dolphinmoblie will soon begin a guided tour around specific Bunbury areas with a history and heritage commentary.
The route follows the Shipwreck Trail through to the mangroves, where hosts explain the history of the area, the map, and the Koombana Footbridge. The bridge features 13 distinctive "ribs," representing the 13 registered shipwrecks shown on the map.
Along the way, guests can be taken into the silos, where they explore the fascinating local information displayed on the walls.
Currently, Dolly takes passengers at the Dolphin Discovery Centre on the hour, every hour. Guests are welcome to hop on or off anywhere along the route (subject to seat availability), making the experience flexible and convenient.
Dolly is a privately owned, locally operated tour experience, and tickets are purchased directly from the driver.
Current pricing is:
* Day Tours: $10 per person
History tours will be $15 per person.
* Night Tours: $20 per person (minimum of 8 guests required)
Dolly seats up to 12 passengers.
At the moment, bookings are made by simply sending a text message or just turning up!
